This, Viva Pinata, and Halo were a huge deal for me growing up. Me and my father used to play this game like crazy. I have fond memories of watching him play and pointing out chests and gargoyles he overloooked or walked past. It was a big bonding moment for us.Celestilock

I have not played this game once in my life. I have played both the prequel and sequel however, and would probably play this game too were it to release here. Or perhaps I would just admire it on the shelves of my library. Maybe both?

I love the morality system of the game and the open world go at your own pace is nice. This is just such a fantastic game and the best of the series. Really wish they would do a faithful remake or at least a remaster of this wonderful game.

"Death is not your destiny today, young sparrow." is certainly a quite foreboding sentiment from the game's primary narrator toward this Xbox title's future. If it is not granted some serious attention by GOG in re-development for a desktop experience like it ideally deserved after my time playing it on console as a child, I would then hold concern for the remainder of its time on the um... "thinks for a moment" ...whatever Microsoft calls their game storefront these days lol.

I used to enjoy the absolute heck out of this game when I was a teenager, specifically the Platinum Hits version. It was one of the few things that helped to keep me sane while dealing with both high school and having to help take care of my father.

Fable II is one of the greatest RPGs of all time, but it was sadly gated off to only the XBox. Not only does it need to be preserved; it needs to expand its audience through the PC. It is from before open worlds, but it still has a great deal of freedom and many things to do. Above all, the game play is excellent.

Fable II and Fable III were my childhood games. I usually go back to Microsoft cloud to play them again. I wish they would be remastered, but i cannot see that happening. There is a chance is the remake / reboot is successful i suppose there might be a chance.

This Fable is the best Fable in the franchise. Steam only the first game and all its reiterations. I want to play the DLC that gives you potions to manipulate the weight of your character.

Great game with story and mechanics, its one of the first fables i played and enjoyed it. Hope it gets ported to pc with modenrized graphics and smoother gameplay. Would love to see some cool mods too. Had fun playing on the 360 witha budy causing trouble every where we went.

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival. Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed. The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo. As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity. Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.
